I applied through college or university. The process took 3+ months – interviewed at Quintiles.

Interview

Entire process took way too long (3 months). During that time I went through multiple phone screenings that essentially were asking the same thing. For my case interview, I was brought in office where I was greeted by an entirely dead, number crunching environment. Those who interviewed me seemed more passionate about their job title than the work or the company itself.

Contacted by hiring manager, and scheduled an interview from there. I was asked quiz type questions related to certain parts of programming. The questions were pretty basic, some did not necessarily pertain to having good programming knowledge and others did.

I applied online. The process took a week – interviewed at Quintiles (Memphis, TN) in May 2015.

Interview

Submitted application online, received an email a little over a week later stating that they are discontinuing hiring for this position as it had been filled. Information that this position may be brought up again. Standard rejection email.

I applied online. The process took 1 day – interviewed at Quintiles (Roanoke Rapids, NC) in March 2015.

Interview

Interview process was not complex at all. Quite frankly, I am not sure that the Interviewer was very experienced in interviewing. Further, I am very experienced in the Pharma and Biopharmaceutical industry and I was surprised that they wanted to interview me for a field sales position.

I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks – interviewed at Quintiles in March 2015.

Interview

There was an initial screening and then a 2 part interview: Behavioral and Case-Based. Both were in the same location on the same day but with two different people. Both interviewers were pleasant and easy to talk to. The Behavioral interview was typical (tell me about your experiences, leadership, handling of work load). The case was not too difficult but the interviewer definitely wanted to see that you were thinking from all angles and kept challenging you to consider alternatives.

Interview Questions

Has there been a time where you have shown leadership in a group setting? Answer Question

Not the most transparent hiring process. I was inteviewed by an Associate Director who was working from home, but was also babysitting his daughter, he had to excuse himself more than twice to discipline his daughter and when he came back he could not remember where we had left off, and started a new question, he did it over and over again, not a single technical question later. I was told that they had moved on with another candidate. I felt violated and smeared. The guy was not listening to anything I was saying. I have more years of experience than required

I applied online. The process took 3+ weeks – interviewed at Quintiles in December 2014.

Interview

I applied on the company website. Two weeks later, I received an email from the company recruiter asking to set up an initial phone interview. We did that later in the afternoon. I received a follow-up email with instructions to watch a graphic video demonstrating how to use the medical device, to be sure I could "stomach" being in that environment. We scheduled a face-to-face interview at a hotel in a nearby city the following week. The interview went well. The recruiter described the position and the expectations, as well as the follow-up process. If selected as one of the final two candidates, they would fly me out to Atlanta to meet with the District Manager. I was told to expect a call the following day, but didn't receive one. I called the recruiter and left a message. The next day, I received an email saying I was not selected to move on with the process.

Interview Questions

"Describe a time when disagreed with you manager. What did you do about it?" Answer Question

I applied through college or university. The process took 1+ week – interviewed at Quintiles.

Interview

The second round interviews were not too bad, but were long (45 minutes each). The cases were not math heavy and focused more on awareness of drug marketing and sales. The presentation component in the final round was odd and no seemed to actually care about it. They had to ask employees to watch the presentation and no one was very engaged. Minimal questions were asked.

As a public health student, they asked me directly "do you have a problem helping pharmaceutical companies make money?" Answer Question
